R E S P E C K

As how Ali G spells it, R E S P E C K. Doesn't really matter how it is spelt as long we get the idea of what he is trying to say. Come to think about it, most of the time it is really kind of difficult to understand what he is saying. Do all Europeans sound that way or is it just him?

There are shows like 911, Maximum Exposure & other likewise shows on AXN channel. Many times it is about man vs nature. I've seen it countless times when man loses to nature & when the victims (most of the time they are the aggressors turned victims because they ain't no match for Mother Nature!) are interviewed, they always say something like everyone should respect nature, respect this, respect that, yadda yadda & the story goes on. How the hell do you respect nature? The suckers poor beings that turned victims usually don't have a high threshold for pain. Normally you see them squirming in pain after their encounter with nature.

Ok, then there are those situations like a house on fire. The occupants managed to make it out of the house & are watching their abode slowly being digested by the flames when the firemen appears. It is only routine to check & ensure that there are no idiots human beings within the premises.

Then someone goes like "Hey! My PIG is still in there! HELP!"

Well then what? You expect a human being to put his own life at risk for a PIG? I'm amazed (but not very impressed) at the firemen's stupidity courage for braving the fire to retrieve the domestic pet. What do they get for doing that? A sense of satisfaction? Proud that they saved the life of something that normally ends up on a dinner plate or inbetween a bun? What's wrong with these people? Putting a human life at risk just to save a main course? I know, every living thing has the right to live. But why risk the lives of others? Just because it is their duty to do so? Please...

Perhaps I'm being selfish by saying that. But do you think the PIG will put its own life at stake to save a human being if the situation was turned around? Hey, pigs are smarter than you think they are ok? RESPECK!

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals -- Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965)
